LAWRENCE White had a birthday to forget as the Emmerdale character was carted off to the police station on suspicion of kidnap on Tuesday night.

He got the fright of his life as a banging noise started coming from his boot after he'd recovered his "stolen" classic car.

Unfortunately for him he had been pulled over by a police officer at the time, who was on the lookout for the vehicle after Lawrence had reported it stolen himself earlier in the episode.

The car went missing after Chas and Debbie Dingle's new car wash descended into chaos. The pair took the car to a barn for Debbie to have a look at after Chas accidentally bashed into a rock.

However, knowing that they weren't meant to be driving the car around they panicked when they heard sirens approach the building.

Wasting no time, Debbie began to reverse when she struck a man, knocking him unconscious. The pair bundled him into the boot and sped down a country lane where they stopped in a layby to assess the situation.

As they debated what to do with the man, they noticed Lawrence's car approaching and hid.

I don't normally watch it but #Emmerdale was hilarious. Must watch more often.
